A vehicle having a door slidably mounted on a shell. The vehicle includes at least one assistance device, comprising both a winder carrying a strap and a receptacle, the winder including a brake for braking unwinding of the strap from the winder, one of the winder and receptacle being fastened to the shell and one of the winder and receptacle being fastened to the door, the strap carrying a latchplate suitable for being reversibly attached to the receptacle.

A lockdown barrier system and method includes a first mount that is secured to a wall surface and a sheet of shielding material formed of an anti-ballistic material that is moveable between a retracted position and an extended position. The sheet of shielding material has a first end that is secured to the first mount and a second end opposite the first end that is freely moveable away from the first mount. The system includes a second mount that is secured to the wall surface at a location that is spaced from the first mount. The second end of the sheet of shielding material is releasably connectable to the second mount and is secured proximate to the first mount when in the retracted position. The second end is secured to the second mount when in the extended position.

A system for guidance and deployment of active panels on a building. One or more guide rails are coupled to a building wall. Panel units are coupled to the guide rails. An active panel can extend and contract from each panel unit. A control system conveys the panel units to an operational position on the building wall. When a panel unit is in operational position, The control system extends or retracts the respective active panel from the panel unit, and adjusts the angle of the panel unit relative to the building wall.

Disclosed are an imperceptible slipping device and a trashcan with the same. the imperceptible slipping device may include a first connecting member and a second connecting member, where the first connecting member is used for being connected with an output shaft of a motor, the first connecting member is convexly provided with a first connecting part, and an outer side of the first connecting part is provided with an abutting member; and the second connecting member is used for being connected with a rotating part, the second connecting member is provided with a first plugging hole for accommodating the first connecting part, the first connecting part is plugged into the first plugging hole, and the abutting member is in interference fit with the first plugging hole.

A stowage compartment for a motor vehicle, wherein the stowage compartment is designed to be arranged underneath a hood element of the motor vehicle, wherein the hood element forms a part of the outer skin of the motor vehicle, wherein the stowage compartment includes: a trough-like container; a cover connectable or connected to the container, wherein the cover is movable relative to the container around a pivot axis between a closed position and an open position, a hinge device, which enables the pivot movement of the cover relative to the container it is provided here that the hinge device is designed in such a way that the cover is automatically held in an arbitrary open position from a minimum opening angle (Wmin) and up to a maximum opening angle (Wmax), and in that the cover automatically moves into a closed position because of gravity below the minimum opening angle (Wmin).

The present invention includes a system for protect a vehicle from damage. Specifically, a non-marking protector is attached to a garage door arm to prevent damage that may occur when the rear lift hatch of a vehicle is opened and makes contact with the garage door arm. The rear lift hatch will contact one or more non-marking protectors instead, thereby ensuring no damage is caused.

A locking slider can be used for a door trim, which has a plate and is mounted on a center roller of a sliding door. The locking slider includes two opening/closing members that are positioned on the plate to face each other and fastened or unfastened as multiple protrusions thereof engage or disengage. Two coupling members are formed at both sides of the plate to face each other so as to allow the opening/closing members to be seated on a movement route of the sliding door. The coupling members are configured to apply force to the opening/closing members from outside to inside. A separating member is formed at one side of the plate so as to be positioned between the coupling members. The separating member is configured to apply force to the opening/closing members from inside to outside.

A method of installing a vehicle component to a vehicle panel is provided. The method includes aligning a rib receiving channel of the vehicle component with an alignment rib that is formed integrally with the vehicle panel while also aligning a fastening opening of the vehicle component with a fastening opening through the vehicle panel. The alignment rib is inserted into the rib receiving channel. A fastener is inserted through the fastening openings of the vehicle component and the vehicle panel. The fastener is tightened while the alignment rib and rib receiving channel inhibit rotation of the vehicle component.

The system includes a series of operable louvers mounted on a four-sided frame and connected on each side to the operating mechanism that allows for easy opening and closing of the louvers. Every part of the system that is exposing to the exterior of the building is separated from the interior part of the system by a low heat conductivity material as a thermal barrier. Each operable louver is composing of a four-sided main frame, two panes of glass (inner and outer) and a coupling mechanism on each side that connects to the operating mechanism. The main frame acts as the thermal break as well as a system that absorbs the energy created when an outside object impacts the window from the outside. The system incorporates sealing devices between all moving parts to eliminate water and air infiltration. The operating system allows for easy opening and closing of the window by rotating each louver with the crank mechanism assisted by springs.

A deceleration mechanism for a door system. In particular, a door system that is adapted to control an opening of a door module that separates compartments of an aircraft, the door module comprising a door panel that performs a rotational movement above a floor structure of the aircraft during an opening of the door module, comprises a deceleration mechanism that comprises a bolt, a bolt moving mechanism that is attached to the bolt, a latch mechanism that is removably connected to the bolt moving mechanism an activation mechanism that is attached to the latch mechanism, and a brake element that is rigidly attached to the bolt.
